Sixteen Years Old, The Fourth Generation of Mizukage

Ever since the conversation with Uchiha Shisui ended that day, Uchiha Itachi has been troubled by the words that the other party said, "A mere ninja is the maker of the world's rules that cannot win".

At the age of five, he has not yet seen a more promising career than a ninja, nor has he seen the scenery of the world other than Konoha. Therefore, he cannot understand the "world rule maker" in Uchiha Shisuikou's mouth. "And "Ninja", what kind of difference is there.

This obsession lasted until one morning a week later.

On this day, as always, he took the bento made by his mother and prepared to go to the temporary hospital to visit his father who was about to be discharged soon. Then, when he arrived outside Fugaku Uchiha's ward and planned to open the door to enter, I heard Uchiha Fugaku's unbelievable rhetorical question from inside:

"What!? Elder Kaito, is what you said true?"

"Well, Hiroto, who was in charge of participating in the early negotiations with Kirigakure, brought back news that Kirigakure had added new conditions, saying that he wanted to hold an exchange program with Konoha's side. Among the students, select some of them to go to the other party's village to communicate for two to three months...

That Terumi Mei also emphasized that I hope that Konoha can show sincerity and ensure that there are members of the Blood Succession Family and the Mystery Family among the exchange students in each period. If it can be done, Kirigakure They will also let the blood successor family over there send exchange students of the right age to study in Konoha. "

"Has everyone in Kirigakure gone crazy?"

Uchiha Fugaku leaned back on the bed behind him, his brows were frowned as if he had suddenly become a man in his seventies and eighties, "This, this is almost a plan to send spies to other villages to collect information openly, why would they Do you think it can be passed?"

"Who says it's not?" Uchiha Kaito shook his head with a wry smile and said, "If you send exchange students, you must have accompanying teachers and guards to ensure their personal safety, right? If there are so many people traveling with you, would you like to put in some information? It's just a matter of not blinking the eyes when the personnel come in..."

"But, but, the teachers and guards we sent here can also collect some information about Kirigakure?"

Uchiha Itachi, who stood outside the door and listened, hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help pushing the door in, and asked his own question to the two people in the ward in a low voice:

"If both sides can get the other party's information, it stands to reason that we should gain more? After all, the environment of Kirigakure is very closed, and it is more difficult to send intelligence personnel to infiltrate to collect information...Isn't it?"

"It's Itachi..."

Seeing that Fugaku's eldest son can have such thinking at a young age, Uchiha Kaito nodded with some relief, but then, he shook his finger at Uchiha Itachi, and said slowly:

"Your idea was indeed correct in the past...but it is not so appropriate now."

"Why, why?"

"Because Kirigakure's current Mizukage-sama, one of the water escapes he is best at is the Kirigakure technique with chakra perception," said Uchiha Fugaku as a witness of Kaguya Rei's attainments in the Kirigakure technique With one of the victims, he said with lingering fear: "In the foggy environment like Kirigakure, as long as he thinks, no intruder's movements can escape his eyes."

"And if the intelligence personnel have no way to avoid Mizukage's sight, then what they see will only be what Kirigakure wants us to see," Uchiha Kaito added: "It can only be Seeing what the enemy wants you to see is a more dangerous situation than seeing nothing."

"is that so?"

Uchiha Itachi nodded as if realizing something, moved a pair of short legs, and delivered the bento box he brought to Uchiha Fugaku, then looked at Uchiha Kaito and asked:

"Then, Grandpa Kaito thinks, is there a chance that Kirigakure's condition will be approved by Hokage-sama?"

"...the probability of passing is not small."

As the old man Konoha who has experienced two generations of Naruto in power, Uchiha Kaito said not very optimistically:

"If the old Hokage of the third generation made this decision, then at the moment when Konoha was so severely injured, if he is conservative, he should agree to sacrifice some interests in exchange for time for Konoha to recuperate; and if it is young If the Four Hokages of the former Hokage make the decision..."

"The person on Konoha's side who most wants to see Kirigakure and Kaguya Rei clearly should be Minato." Uchiha Tomigake shook his head with a wry smile, "Even if people who know to go to Kirigakure, there is a high probability that they can only see Seeing what Rei Kaguya wants them to see, Minato should also be willing to let his confidantes to seriously and deeply understand the things displayed by Kirigakure."

"That is to say... next year at the latest, will there be people who will go to Kirigakure to be the first batch of exchange students?"

Itachi Uchiha asked while scratching his fingers and calculating the corresponding time.

"Yes, and considering that this is the first exchange project between the two parties, Konoha, who is on the disadvantaged side, must make concessions in the selection of exchange students. , will be added to the list of exchange students.”

Uchiha Fugaku shook his head and opened the rich bento carefully prepared by his wife. At the same time, he looked at his eldest son who was not yet old enough to enroll in ninja school, and wondered whether he should let Itachi re-enroll a year later. , with plans to avoid this first exchange item.

Then, Uchiha Itachi murmured to himself with some gratitude, and he almost threw the bento box in his hand out.

"Great, next year, I can still catch up with the school..."

Similar to Uchiha Fugaku's gaffe, Uchiha Kaito, who also heard Uchiha Itachi talking to himself, also opened his eyes suddenly, leaned down in disbelief, and pressed Uchiha Itachi's shoulder, the eyes in the sockets Sharingan quickly spun and asked eagerly:

"What are you talking about!? Itachi, I, I heard correctly, are you planning to enroll in the ninja school before Konoha and Kirigakure's exchange student program starts!? Do you know that in order to let This exchange plan has received enough attention, Kirigakure will never let you go in their sight!?"

"I know, of course I know."

Uchiha Itachi's answer was very calm, as if talking about other people's affairs. He gently pulled away Uchiha Kaito's trembling hands, then looked at Uchiha Fugaku who was frowning, and calmly explained his thoughts:

"However, if I miss this opportunity, I probably won't have the opportunity to visit Kirigakure without any worries... Father should be very clear. It doesn't make any sense anymore, and it's impossible for me to forcefully stay in the Ninja School to waste my time in order to participate in this exchange student program."

"Itachi..."

For his eldest son's talent, Uchiha Fugaku still has a good understanding, but it is precisely because of this that he didn't know how to refute Uchiha Itachi for a while. After a long silence, he finally asked quietly :

"Is it because of Shisui, Itachi?"

"Yes, my lord."

Uchiha Itachi nodded, and said with a serious expression:

"That day, Shisui told me that Kirigakure will be the one who will re-establish the rules of the ninja world in the future, and if Konoha's ninjas cannot gain a vision beyond one village and one country, then even if Konoha returns to the peak, he will still It's just a ninja village that trains ninjas..."

"I want to know, what is the difference between Kirigakure, who can make him so confident, proud, and unswervingly believe, and Konoha."

"But Itachi, you are only five years old, even next year, you will only be a six-year-old child!"

Uchiha Kaito couldn't help but speak dissuadingly:

"Even if you see what Shisui sees now, your life experience and knowledge are not enough to support you to understand what you see... Even Zhishui is older than you and mature than your precocious wisdom My child has been brainwashed by Mizukage to become his, his believer, we can't take the risk of losing you and let you appear in front of Mizukage again!"

"Father, do you think so too?"

Uchiha Itachi did not answer directly, but turned his attention to Uchiha Fugaku, waiting for his answer.

"I have no idea."

In Uchiha Fugaku's mind, what he saw with [Only Space Consciousness] once again flashed, the picture of the Fifth Hokage Uchiha Shisui, he closed his eyes, and sighed long:

"Standing in the current situation, if I look back at the future I see, there is a possibility that the scene about Zhishui can be explained... If this is the case, let Itachi go as soon as possible. Looking at the world outside Konoha is not necessarily a bad thing."

"Zhishui? You mean..."

Uchiha Kaito was stunned for a moment, and after realizing what Uchiha Fugaku was talking about, he couldn't help opening his mouth wide, stumbled, and stammered:

"Yes, yes, yes, but, this, this, this, there is no turning back..."

"Based on Kirigakure's current strength and Kaguya Rei's age, is it really necessary to turn around?"

Uchiha Fugaku laughed at himself, then looked up at the white ceiling, and murmured to Uchiha Kaito:

"Not necessarily, only my eyes can see the future scenery, Elder Kaito... At this moment, maybe there are other people who are smart enough to think about problems similar to ours."

"Is there really no way out, Fugaku?" Kaito Uchiha took a deep breath and asked seriously.

"Besides Itachi, we also have Sasuke, don't we?"

Uchiha Fugaku looked at Uchiha Itachi who suddenly became serious, and sighed subtly.
